It is agreed that the 18th line will be top-notch?

Thursday.

As usual, Yang Ruoqian casually glanced at the documents Qi Mu left for him. After making sure that there was nothing important worth paying attention to, he began to think about other things.

Recently, "The Boys 2" and "Wandering Blue Planet 2" have both come to an end. In other words, the exams have been completed and now is the time to wait for the results to be released. There is no point in thinking about it any more.

"This year's spring recruitment is almost over, and the group's recruitment site is really packed with people..."

Mr. Yang looked at the photos that were transferred to his computer and sighed a little.

The photo shows the group's spring recruitment position at a key university - with sufficient funding, the group's position is extremely conspicuous.

They even moved a small holographic display there to show the group's achievements to college students.

If we say that before, Kuiguang Group was a company that thrived in the entertainment industry and was "good at making money", now they have another label.

Not only can you make money, but you can also engage in technology.

The appearance of Luo Ruying surprised many people.

Those who are interested in Luo Ruying are not just the group’s fans, not just those who have a passion for virtual humans, but also many professional technicians who care about the development of AI.

Many times when they interact with Luo Ruying, what they say and do are not aimless and have a strong sense of detection.

But Luo Ruying is focused on the entertainment industry after all. She is not like those interactive AIs on the Internet that will respond to all questions. Irrelevant questions will just be laughed off. So far, these so-called tests have not been able to produce any results.

This further consolidated Luo Ruying's position.

Nowadays, not only students who have some knowledge of entertainment industry operations, not only students majoring in musicals and dance, but even many students who go to big companies to write code after graduation want to join Kuiguang Group.

Hence the grand scene shown in the photo.

Some smaller companies are almost deserted, and even some well-known large companies do not have as many employees as the Kuiguang Group.

Almost every student wants to put their carefully prepared resume on the desk of the group's human resources staff, hoping to be selected.

Kuiguang Group can really provide them with an excellent opportunity and the best platform.

As long as you have made achievements, you will definitely be promoted - because a certain person was inexplicably pushed into the group annual meeting venue by General Manager Yang, and the entire annual meeting process was live-recorded. Now all young people who care about their work know the scene of the annual meeting.

Even if a grassroots employee achieves good results, he or she can be promoted to a leader on the spot and be directly responsible for an entire project.

Even if you don't want this reward and just want to do your job well, you can still get a travel package.

As a result, people from all over the industry wanted to join the Kuiguang Group.

At the spring recruitment site, I heard that there are doctoral students from famous universities applying.

Of course, the group does not only consider academic qualifications. The base for offline social recruitment in spring also has very outstanding employees to check, but the relevant review and assessment is more complicated.

“I feel so painful thinking about so many talented people joining the group.”

While Yang Ruoqian was complaining, Luo Rujin suddenly appeared from a distance and asked with a stern face, "Boss, are you in pain? Do you want me to sing a song for you to ease your pain?"

Yang Ruoqian waved his hand and asked Luo Ruying to go back: "No, play by yourself."

A week ago, the staff from the technical department upstairs brought him this holographic projection machine, and Mr. Yang and Chang Zhiqing had a lot of fun playing with it that day.

If conditions allowed, they would even want to invite this cyber daughter to come home and have dinner at the table.

It has to be said that these technical employees not only understand technology, but also understand human characters, and know how to design human characters to be likable.

Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing simply neglected their work that day and played with Luo Ruying for the entire day but still couldn't get enough fun.

Occasionally, Luo Ruying would pop up and interact with Mr. Yang, but due to AI issues, they could only interact on entertainment-related topics.

The work cannot be solved, the best you can do is sing a song.

However, although Mr. Yang has his own office, which has excellent sound insulation due to special settings, it is still unrealistic to completely isolate the propagation of sound due to the limitations of current technology and various physical laws.

Letting Luo Ruying sing live in her own office was somewhat too advanced.

Qi Mu is next door, and people come into the office from time to time. If they see this scene, where would Mr. Yang put his face?

Yang Ruoqian continued to look at the report.

Since "The Boys 2" is released worldwide, its promotion and publicity are not only strong in China, but also overseas, especially in Asia.

Mager cared more about this first battle than many people expected.

First they shot a promotional video on an island, then they fought a lawsuit at all costs, and finally they launched an all-out publicity drive.

This was partly due to the sufficient financial reserves of the Kuiguang Group, but also partly due to Mag's own decision.

"Alas, the domestic market is probably completely finished. I wonder how the overseas market is doing?" Yang Ruoqian sighed, "I hope the audience there will be smaller."

However, looking at the performance of the marketing department, even pirated peripherals have come out, so it seems unrealistic to say that the market size is small.

What's more, this crew, from the director to the screenwriter to the actors, have all been tested.

To take a step back, even if the quality of the movie is really not up to standard, the accumulated popularity from the previous movie and the traffic of each actor can support the box office of a bad movie.

The domestic market can basically be said to have settled.

"Luo Ruying, is there any way to save my father?" While thinking, Yang Ruoqian knocked on the table twice and called Luo Ruying out.

Luo Ruying showed a confused look on her face and shook her head, "I can't save the box office. Boss, if you are troubled, I can sing a song for you!"

"Don't sing, kid. Save it for the concert and sing it slowly by yourself." Yang Ruoqian sighed.

Yes, there is another person like Shang Qianyu. He can't help, he can only work hard to make money in his own field, which makes Mr. Yang more troubled.

Instead of thinking about these unrealistic things, think about the zoo...

After Shao Yiqi was exiled to be in charge of the zoo's affairs, he did his best to contact various parties and found some animal experts.

Mr. Yang's previous plan to raise killer whales was pointed out to have major problems - these animals are prone to depression in captivity, and may even do extreme things like self-harm.

No matter how professional the zoo is, or how strong the animal psychology counseling experts are, they can only solve the problem in the short term at best.

As an animal with a lifespan of about 80 years, once kept in captivity, even if it is fed with all kinds of good food and drinks and provided with the best living conditions, its average lifespan will not exceed 20 years.

So Mr. Yang simply gave up similar ideas.

If there are animal performances, they will do things like domestic dogs, spinning in circles and doing somersaults. Both humans and animals enjoy the performance and enjoy themselves together.

Also, the cost is higher.

As Luo Ruqin was humming a song, President Yang continued to make plans for the company's prospects and future.

"..."

……

Yang Ruoqian, who was far away in Jinhai City, didn't know that at this moment, not only him, but also the crew members and managers of "The Boys 2", but also a group of people on the other side of the ocean were very concerned about the performance of the movie.

Recently, they even stopped other work and focused only on the global box office of this movie.

"Mr. Mag, judging by the market feedback, the box office will definitely be a big hit. You don't need to worry."

Mager glanced at the busy traffic under the super high-rise office building and waved his finger: "No, William, I'm not you. I won't worry about this kind of thing."

"There is an old Chinese saying, 'Do your best and leave the rest to fate.' It means to do everything you can to the best of your ability. The subsequent results are not important, as long as you don't regret it when you look back on it."

The man named William nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "If you are not thinking about the international box office of "The Boys 2", then what are you thinking about?"

Mager said, "Have you learned about the market trends in Asia recently?"

"I'm an analyst responsible for the North American market... I really haven't learned anything about it."

If the company had not focused all its attention on the movie "The Boys 2" recently, and if the Asian market had not been the company's strategic goal recently, he would not have appeared here to discuss similar things with Mag.

In fact, the value of a newly-started market or a newly-tried project is far less than that of the company's already mature IP projects.

But even an analyst like William, who does not analyze the Asian market, recognizes the potential of this part of the market.

Especially in an era when Western IPs are disappearing rapidly in the global market as if by convention, an IP that conforms to local culture and has a certain degree of wide recognition is a blue ocean market.

The entire company generally approves of Mager's decision to focus on the Asian market, choose "The Boys 2" as its first film, and cooperate with Kuiguang Group.

There are some minor disagreements, most of which are questioning why Mager failed to obtain the IP leasing contract; questioning why Mager has to carry out rights protection at such a huge cost.

To put it bluntly, this kind of copyright infringement is actually very common.

Many authors post paid fan works online without obtaining authorization from the copyright holder.

However, considering the huge cost of defending rights, and considering that this kind of fan behavior is not much different from paid advertising and is to some extent mutually beneficial, most companies will choose not to pursue it.

Of course, in the end, Mag's decision was not affected.

After all, the management structure of foreign companies is very different from that of domestic companies.

In Mager's company and many other Western groups, the chairman of the board and the CEO are actually more powerful and are the real boss of the company.

As for others, even if they are questioned by the board of directors, he only needs to give an explanation.

Mag thought about the scene of himself being tied up by Yang Ruoqian to travel, and felt the beauty of his life now. He continued, "A synthetic AI star, you didn't pay attention to it?"

William was stunned: "This, hasn't it been available for a long time?"

No matter where you are, people have made similar attempts and even achieved considerable success.

"Pay attention to my key point, which is AI, which is intelligence." Mag corrected, "I know what you said, but it's just a bunch of staff writing songs, programming and painting, and integrating their works together on a virtual IP. In fact, they can't be called independent stars. These IPs only exist in the works and don't really exist."

William thought for a moment and said, "You mean... this virtual star of our partner is basically equivalent to a normal star. It has the same production team behind it as other artists, but it can almost be regarded as an independent individual?"

"Yes. It can almost be regarded as a living person... I heard from people at Kuiguang Group that after running the machine, Luo Ruqin almost relied on its AI to operate independently. Including connecting with fans and handling various affairs."

"So amazing?" William was stunned. "Are they developing so fast over there?"

"The technical integration is quite impressive." Mager was not interested in technical matters and waved his hand to skip the topic. "You don't know how much money Luo Ruying made when she just debuted. I think the value of this project is very high, very, very high."

William didn't quite understand, but thinking that Mag had never made a mistake in his judgment in the general direction in recent years, and even if he made some loss-making deals, he quickly concluded his mistakes and adjusted the direction, he didn't say much: "In this case, you can continue to cooperate with them on this project... The more projects we cooperate on, the more stable our relationship will be."

Although the two companies are now cooperating, the projects involved are not large. If other companies also see their potential and are willing to pay more money to sign a better contract with them, they might really be poached.

"It's a pity that they don't want to do it." Mager sighed and shook his head, "They should be thinking of running it themselves..."

"It's a pity indeed." William said in a flattering tone. He never paid too much attention to things that were completely hopeless, so he brought the topic back on track. "'The Boys 2' will be released worldwide in three days. Where do you plan to visit it?"

Mager lamented that he failed to get Luo Ruying's cooperation project and that this original blue ocean market was encroached upon.

But he will not be defeated by this small setback. As long as "The Boys 2" takes off at the global box office and as long as a better cooperation contract is given in the future, he does not believe that Kuiguang Group and Yang Ruoqian cannot see his sincerity!
Mager was full of confidence: "That's not called an inspection, that's called welcoming the victory and future that belongs to us."
